This happens to anyone who breaks down in Venezuela, at any time of day. There are hundreds of thousands of people out there waiting for the chance to rob them.

It can happen at the bus stop, on the bus, anywhere any time and the police are unable or unwilling to help. The chance of a victim getting justice in the courts is close to zero.

I read a lot of Venezuela blogs. lol

I would think that at some point the nation would basically fall apart, with militias cordoning off neighborhoods or subdivisions, with roadblocks, privately-run checkpoints, armored convoys... that sort of thing. How do people live in that place?

And just imagine, in Venezuelan big cities, there are bad neighborhoods that are really bad.

This is the nation who's dictator-for-life came over here, to the United Nations, and publically insulted our President from the podium. "Smell of brimstone," etc. And our MSM lapped it all up with delight.
